That's what i am saying Leon. The cooler was "quite warm" because it was doing its job and cooling the trans fluid.
Whether there was some kind of issue that allowed the fluid through my coolers when in manual mode or not, who knows... but I can't for the life of me think/believe that Nissan would stop the fluid from being cooled when in sports mode.
Just not logical to me.
NFI on the temp. I only put my hand on the PWR cooler but being where it was situated there is no way it could have had heat soak from anywhere on the car.
